Not even close. :dopey: ;)

Think yards of plastic sheeting and rolls of parcel tape. :sly: :sly:
 
I wont be racing this one guys as I am not keen on slippy cars on such a long track ... just want to wish you all a good race and enjoy :cheers:

Cya's at 111 👍
Cheers
Ron.
 
Last update from me for today...

T3: 1'40.583
T6: 3'26.545
T9: 5'12.300

:D

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
Got my replay loaded to the pc without a problem from the maxdrive!
Had a lot of problems with that thing lately. :ouch:
 
Im all over the place with this car when on the limit. :grumpy:
It does a great understeer/4 wheel drift thing when left foot braking round turns....
Im probably just too tired...

After 6 million restarts (thats a lie) i managed to get the car past Angstkurve once, and passed T9: 5'13.034 which i thought was ok, till i read Kent's latest :(
Interestingly, i match you almost tenth for tenth on the first 2 T's, but ive lost a good second by number 9.
Well done there mate 👍

I hope to be running some laps rather than restarts at a later date when ive slept for a bit and have a fresh set of eyes and reaction times...

I think just touring the circuit till the cars behaviour becomes second nature to me is what will bring those seconds that i have seen left on the track in my replay....

Ah well.

It is nice to be posting here again.

Good luck to everyone

:irked:👍
 
hi there;)

had my first practicing session on this neat little combo and managed to obtain splits of

1'38.2xx
bla bla
2'07.6xx

will get a clean lap when another session on sunday is conducted
 
Well I just got FM2 and I was like well I'll go ahead and take a look in the WRS to see whats shaking and lone behold one of my favorite tuned S2000 is up for a run. It's not like I did much on the WRS but now my chances of entering future challenges will be even slimmer.

I have a couple of record holder times in this car, it wont be long for me to post up some quick splits. GLA 👍

Well there goes my effort for the week... im concerning myself with a close finish with Kent, and then along comes Holl and nox 5 minutes and 6 seconds off the time....

:trouble:👍
 
Mmmmh... :dunce:

I see my splits from the Nurb challenge 2 aren't too far off at the moment,
even though we are running the Amuse S2K with a hundred horses less over there... :confused: :confused: :confused:
Bugs me a little bit... :irked:

Could I eventually be in on this one, even though I'm not yet in a division, Sphinx?
I can run the qualifier race and submit the replay rather quickly (say, within a day).

P.S.: Have to admit that I will rarely participate in future W.R.S. events since, sadly,
I don't have enough time. :yuck: :mad: 🤬 :banghead: This particular combo would interest me
since I spent some time in that car on the 'ring...
 
Mr. Apex, that is perfectly fine indeed! Just make sure you spend at LEAST a couple hours on the qualifier so you get placed in a proper division. Glad to have you here! One race a year is more than none, and always welcome. :cheers:

And yeah, Dan, a bit of a typo there, eh?
 
Found a few seconds...
T3 1'43.343
T6 3'33.232
T9 5'24.261
 
:eek: I was going to sit out the next few weeks, but I love it. Deffinitely playing. :cheers:

hehe, 5'07 t9, sorry, still 5 secs up, too easy:sly:
 
Had some laps on this last night... first clean lap (lap 2 in a session save btw)

1'42.487 / 3'30.146 / 5'20.004

Had a faster t9 (5'19) but in an unclean lap :grumpy:
 
T3 - 1'42.317
T6 - 3'29.651
T9 - 5'19.081

It's been a while since i've been here, this combo was enough to draw me back though 👍 Skills are very rusty, so lots of improvement to come.
 
I think I'm over my head here but, we gave 'er a go eh. :scared:

1'53.101
4'05.743
6'16.646

I can get much better splits but can't seem to find a clean lap. :ouch:
 
I hope to get more time into this, the top racers make this an embarrassing endeavor.

1'42.398
3'31.982
5'21.900
 
Hello all. Gave it a go.

T3 1'40.633
T6 3.28.026
T9 5'14.737
 
I've got this kinda love/hate thing going on with the 'Ring. I simply adore the track, when I'm driving 'by myself', but I start to hate it when I'm OLR-ing on it. It's just sooo hard to get a clean lap that is still on the edge. :S

If I ease up a little to ensure a clean lap, I usually get the feeling that I'm too slow, that I left too many seconds on the track. If I push it in every conrer to ensure a fast lap, I usually stuff up somewhere, and then I get sooo frustrated :S But still, I can't help but to try again :)

Anyway, 4 session since the start of this combo yielded 2 (!) clean laps, and that'll probably be it for me.

Splits on my fastest so far:
T3: 1'42.457
T6: 3'31.101
T9: 5'20.069

You'll just have to make do with competing against the other mere mortals this week then :) 👍

I hope to get more time on this too, although it is a little frustrating when you take a trip off track 4+ mins into it :crazy:
 
forget it. i screwed up while updaterering luxy :)

Feel free to run the qualifier as KLR142 suggested. 👍

Uh, good grief. I love the 'ring, have driven there personally once in a '98 Impreza Turbo (UK spec, about 250hp). Liked the circuit more than the car, I have to say.

So I manage to squeeze myself into div 2 and then I have this to show for a couple of hours graft:

T3: 1:43.264
T6: 3.34.502
T9: 5:26.something

Think I'm going to put softs on it, get a clean lap, then chase that grippier ghost down.

Which technique (and min corner speeds) are you guys using through the fast 6th gear left hander at about 1m07 (Schwedenkreuz.) I drive this in a very weird way because my chief practice car for the 'ring is a fully mentalised RUF BTR, so I have to left foot brake very gingerly over the crest to get it to be stable. The Amuse sticks, but only to a point!

Well from memory. I think I've been getting around a 1'40.5 to 1'41.5 for T3, hovering around a 3'29 to 3'30 for T6. But then my T6 has been all over the place, but I'd say average is like 5'22. So I guess it's easy to see where I'm losing time. I'll try to have a go later today, once I've finished my final paper for English.
 
Bah, humbug. :ouch:

1:42.688
3:34.832
5:25.968

Doing OLR with the 'ring is enjoyable, but in some freaky sadomasochistic kind of way. :scared:

The S2000 is great under brakes, it has to be said. Very nice. I think all the engineers in the Amuse garage are getting a bit hacked off dragging all the wrecks of S2000s off the track and replacing suspension corner units.

(P.S. How do I set up a custom avatar? Can anyone point me to an admin who could help? Ta.)
 
I won't be posting any times for this week :(
I can't make it round the course :banghead:

I think theres just too many corners for me to get right!

:mad:

My hairs gone grey :ouch:

as far as i know you need either to be a premium member ($$$) or reach a post count of 500 in order to pick an avvie of your own. happy posting! :)
 
Ive had enough of this...
I do 120-150 starts and get to Angstkurve once... and then i fall off!

Ive managed two laps in the two sessions ive had, and both of those could easily be faster, a lot faster, i just dont have the time to sit down and lap, so im going to stick with what i got i think, which turned out to be half a second quicker at the line, despite being 2 seconds up during the course...
:mad:

anyway:
T9: 5'12.660

Maybe i'll get one more session in tomorrow...

:grumpy:👍
 
Love the car, love the track, hate the lack of time I'm able to put into it :( Here is my first clean lap (which I'm submitting aswell):

T3: 1`42.861
T6: 3`31.518
T9: 5`22.436

Happy racing folks 👍
 
Just as with most everyone else's comments it's getting a clean lap that's the real challenge. A couple of sessions and I've gotten a clean:

1:42.098
3:31.149
5:21.660

we'll see what tonight's attempt brings
